Cadance paced back and forth in her room, almost tearing her hair out. Tonight was the night of hers and Shining Armor's wedding anniversary. A full year of being together and she wanted to make it special. She batted off ideas to herself all day trying to figure out the perfect first anniversary, but the only thing that popped out to her was the irony of the situation.

Unfortunately, due to the Crystal Empire’s sudden return a few months ago, both her’s and Shining’s job nearly tripled in workload and thus she had little time to plan a day to themselves, much less have an elaborate vacation. So they spent their anniversary here in Canterlot, more out of convenience than a romantic spot, though there was no shortage of those. They had lived most of their romantic life so far at the castle after all.

“Let’s see, we could have dinner in the park. No wait, there’s that foals festival happening tonight in the playground. How about dinner at La Trot? Nah, Blueblood’s going to be there and I’d hate for there to be a fight like last time. How about- no that was last week.” Cadance growled in frustration as her ideas kept dying as soon as she made them. She gave a loud sigh. “Maybe if I take a shower, inspiration will come to me?” She didn't have any duties to do for at least another half hour, so she could take a quick shower to clear her head.

Cadance stepped from the room into the wardrobe. She unceremoniously stripped off her clothes and tossed them onto an empty rack for the servants to fix later. Turning around, she caught a glimpse of her reflection in the full body mirror. She had a slim, hourglass figure with slender arms and legs. Her breasts were fairly large and perky, enough to put many mares to shame, but that was one of many benefits that came with being an alicorn. Her light pink fur blended well with her multicolored hair like ice cream or candy. She nodded her satisfaction at the reflection and walked over to the shower.

Using her magic, she turned on the faucets, letting the warm water flow through the pipes. She moaned slightly in pleasure as the water cascaded down her body and hair, giving her a sexy wet mane look. She grabbed the rose scented soap and started to lather it in her hands while she hummed a tune to herself. She rubbed the soap suds over her arms and shoulders, then around her breasts and finally down to her legs. As she trailed her fingers around her body, she couldn't help but feel a little aroused at the prospect of someone barging in while she showered. It was a bit of a secret fantasy of hers, but she would only let Shining Armor act it out.

“Now what to do?” she wondered aloud. She tried to figure out something, but no ideas came to mind. She yelled in frustration and slammed her fist against the wall. “Calm down,” she said to herself after doing her breathing exercises. “Maybe I can ask Luna or Celestia for advice.” She could ask Twilight, but didn’t want to possibly scar the young mare’s mind with indecent thoughts about her brother. It was hard enough talking about the birds and the bees to her.

Once she was clean and refreshed, Cadance stepped out of the shower and used her magic to clean herself off with towels. She could have used a heating spell, but there were some feelings magic just couldn't replace. She hummed a song to herself when suddenly she was thrown to the wall and held there spread eagled. She tried to use magic against her assailant, but found that she couldn’t access it. Lacking other options, she began to scream for the guard, but her mouth was suddenly gagged with the towel she was using earlier. Her eyes darted around and widened in shock as they locked onto the other figure in the room.

“Chrysalis!” she said, but with the gag, it came out as, “Chrmmammim!” The queen of the changelings stepped forward. She was as tall, if not taller than, Cadance and very slim, despite her very large breasts and curvy waist. She wore leafy green wrappings around her midsection, covering her chest and hips modestly, but cut short enough to leave tantalizing views. Her black, hole-ridden arms and legs were as slender as her body. She laughed with contempt at Cadance.

“It seems that I’ve caught you again, and this time with less clothes than before.” Chrysalis said. She then set up a sound proof barrier around the room before pulling the gag out of Cadance’s mouth as if she wanted to hear her futile screams for help and begging for mercy.

Cadance smacked her lips a few times to rid herself of the gag’s foul taste. She glared at the changeling queen. “What do you want Chrysalis?” she asked but she felt like she knew the answer. Ever since the wedding last year, Cadance wondered how she could react to the queen returning for revenge or some sort of invasion. She and her husband made plans in case of such events. Unfortunately, since she was caught unawares and in person, most of these plans were useless. So far, the only thing she could do was stall Chrysalis until help arrived or leave something to show where she had been taken too. Maybe pray her husband or maybe a maid walked in or something. Now that it was happening, she didn’t know what to stall her with.

Chrysalis giggled before answering. “I think we both know the answer to that, don’t we? I need enough love to feed my people, and while I’m at it, I think I’ll take a bit of revenge for what you did at the wedding. Care to give me that much?”

“Like Tartarus I will!”

“Oh my, such a temper.” Chrysalis said, “I'll enjoy breaking you, but first, I'm going to be merciful and give you a choice. Hand over your love magic willingly or I force it from you. I'll give you a few minutes to decide.”

Cadance racked her mind for a possible escape route. Her magic was blocked by some green substance around her horn, so that wasn't much of an option until it came off. Any of the self-defense techniques she knew were worthless as long as she was kept pinned like this. Then again, this was a hostage scenario. Perhaps she could talk her way out like they do in the mystery novels she liked to read. If she stalled long enough, somepony might walk in on them.

“It doesn't have to be this way you know.” she pleaded, “Let’s just talk this out and settle this like civilised mares.”

Chrysalis raised an eyebrow at this change of subject. “I am quite civilised, thank you, and I think you fail to understand that I need love to sustain my people and you ponies are the only ones truly capable of feeding us. Ergo, I have to kidnap you.”

“You have to kidnap me?” she asked, “Why? What purpose does it serve aside from making us even bigger enemies?”

“As I said, it will feed my people.” Chrysalis stated firmly. “You have the power to help us, so I will take it!”

Cadance stared at her, trying to sort through the faulty logic. “You do realize that you can't simply force love out of a pony, right? Not true love, at least. I’m not a lemon you can just squeeze for a drink when you’re thirsty. If you want love, then go cultivate it the usual way, with time, care, and a few good dates. I'm the Princess of Love. It is literally my job to know everything about love. I could probably find somepony who could love you.” By this point, Cadance had nearly forgotten why she was distracting Chrysalis.

Chrysalis chuckled. “Really? Then tell me this, who could possibly love a changeling? One without a disguise?” Cadance noticed a sad, envious tinge to the Queen's eyes. “We aren’t exactly going to win any pony beauty contests anytime soon.” Chrysalis gestured to her body and pointed at her arms and legs. “I look like cheese for Faust’s sake! It certainly doesn’t help that every race is now more aware of us changelings, making it even harder for us to do our work! At the first sight or mere mention of us, you all run away and hide while the guards march us off. If you truly believe yourself more knowledgeable on the subject of love, then tell me where there are ponies who would accept us. Hmm?”

The pink princess opened her mouth to speak but no words came out. Chrysalis was right. As loving and tolerating as ponies were, that love and tolerance only goes so far. For once, Cadance truly felt a pang of sympathy for the species that ruined her wedding and invaded Canterlot.

“Sympathy isn't going to feed a Hive, Princess.” Chrysalis said with a sneer. “We need love.”

“I know, but I wish there was a more peaceful way to go about this.” the pink princess said. “There must be a solution.”

“Sure,” Chrysalis said, rolling her eyes. “Just find a nice stallion for us, that will definitely do the trick.”

She continued talking but Cadance didn't listen. She was too focused on those words. They hit her like a brick to the face. 'How could I have been so stupid? That’s a brilliant idea!' she thought, then her conscience butted in, ’No, that's a terrible idea. That's hormones and situational stress talking.'

’But It could be the solution for tonight’s dilemma.’ Cadance’s passionate side argued

‘Yes, and a chance for her to take over Canterlot again.’ Her rationale countered

‘Not if you make her Pinkie Pie Swear.’ Passion offered.

‘She wouldn’t follow that. She has no friends to lose.’

‘Now you’re just being mean.’

‘Oh shush you.’

Passion rolled its nonexistent eyes, ‘Look, she’s obviously desperate for love, and you need a fix for tonight. You both win.’

‘Yes, but what if she wants more?’ Rationale asked.

Passion smirked, ‘If anything, Shining will think it’s kinky…and you will too.’

Rationale had nothing to say to that.

Passion used the silence to strike her opponent down, ‘Just one night. Who knows? You might even make a friend out of her and help her.’ Passion uses Optimism.

‘…I don’t know.’ It is super effective.

‘At the very least, you two can become fuck buddies. Think of the things she could do with that transformation ability.’ Passion finished.

Cadance just sat on the sidelines of the mental argument, taking in both sides words as she tried to make sense of it, then she decided. ’Fine but if this goes south, it was your idea.’

‘We’re the same person.’ Passion said.

‘Still your idea.’

Firm in her decision, Cadance weighed her options and formulated a brief plan that would definitely catch the queen off guard, but only if she played it right. The rest would have to be improvised as the night went on. She finished a few crucial details as the Queen ended her tirade.

“So what shall it be?” Chrysalis asked, “Will you give up the food I require or shall I have to force it out of you?” she rubbed her hands in anticipation.

Cadance took a deep breath. “Sure, I’ll give you food.”

“Ha! I would expect such defiance from you.” Chrysalis said, striding away. “Just like Celestia, protecting you-” She blinked in surprise as Cadance's words hit her, and turned around. “Wait, what?”

Cadance stared back with a neutral look. “You heard me. I said I'll give you food.” She straightened herself as best she could.

Chrysalis blinked once more in surprise, clearly not expecting such a response. She opened and closed her mouth several times in an attempt to speak but no sound came out. Turning to the side, Chrysalis pulled a small booklet out from her dress and flipped through the pages while muttering under her breath. “...not according to plan…what to do...” was all Cadance could hear from her.

Now Cadance had to just keep the ball rolling. “Actually, I have a little proposition for you. Something that can benefit us both. I can certainly get you a large amount of love, but I require your services first. In fact, depending on how willing and… enthusiastic you are, you may receive even more love to take with you. So what will it be?”

Chrysalis snapped away from her little booklet. Her face was torn between caution and almost desperate eagerness as she contemplated Cadance’s offer. She bit her lip and asked. “What kind of services do you require?” Her tone like a mouse poking the cheese on a trap. “I can’t imagine what you’d need me for.”

Cadance smirked. “It’s not that I need you specifically, but more that you happen to be convenient. I take it you realize what the significance of today is, correct? No? Well, today is the anniversary of my marriage with Shining Armor and since I’ve been rather busy as of late, I need some help deciding on a few things. You’ll get your love when we come back for some ‘aggressive cuddling’ before we sleep. Alright?”

Chrysalis mulled over the idea for a moment or two before speaking again. “How do I know this isn’t some trick so you can go get your guards?” She narrowed her eyes at the pink alicorn. “I’m not stupid enough to trust you on a mere promise. I do not want promises. I want a guarantee.”

“You don’t, but we both have more to gain from this deal than not. You get a boat load of love, and I a night to remember. Still not convinced? How about a taste of what you could receive should you agree?” Cadance allowed her mind to fill with thoughts of her husband and her love for him. Much like Celestia and Luna’s innate sense of the sun and moon, Cadance could feel her strong love suffuse the air before it was slowly drained out by Chrysalis. When she felt it was enough, she stopped and asked, “How’s that for a guarantee?” Her face was a little flushed by the end when the more intimate thoughts came to mind.

Chrysalis was still trying to absorb the love in the air. “This was a taste?!” She said in disbelief. Her eyes widened and seemed hopeful as she gathered up the last of it. “Fine, I’ll assist you with your little day, but I expect to be completely filled to overflowing with love by the end. Deal?”

Cadance smirked. “Oh you’re going to get filled alright.” ‘In more ways than one.’ “So yes, we have a deal. Now let me down and help me pick out a dress. I’m thinking something with red.”

*****

Shining Armor was having a very good day and not just because of what was going to happen tonight. Aside from the usual monotony that was entailed in his work, he had cleared out more files from the annoying nobles that kept trying to get into his favor and managed to get a few of them to shut up. His coffee tasted great and the air was pleasantly warm with a nice gentle breeze. It was just the little things that made the day worth it. However, it was more than just that that kept his day going. It was the piece of paper held in his breast pocket. He couldn’t help but reread the letter Cadance had sent him while at work.

Dear Shiny,

For our anniversary, I’ve set up a special surprise for you tonight. Try not to be too exhausted today and drink plenty of liquids.

Love, Cadance

Shining couldn’t hope to know what that meant, but knowing Cadance it was going to be a very good night. More than once, Shining almost wrote to Celestia to lower the sun an hour or two earlier. He knew she would refuse and probably laugh at bit at Shining’s agonizing wait, maybe even move the sun slower or backwards. It took every ounce of patience and duty to keep from running home to his wife before his shift ended.

Eventually the time came when the shift turned to the Lunar Guard and he could go home and rest. He still needed to find a suitable candidate to take his place here as Captain of the Royal Guard. Sure, the upper brass could handle his replacement, but Shining wanted the peace of mind knowing that he was leaving the kingdom in good hands. He was currently pulling double shifts to cover both Equestria’s and the Crystal Empire’s defenses. Once the Empire could defend itself as well as Equestria, then he could turn his duties as Captain of the Royal Guard to the next most capable officer. It was tough, but someone had to do it.

He stopped by a flower shop to grab a bouquet of red roses for Cadance, her favorite. Then, he nearly sprinted to the room they were currently staying in the palace and opened the door. Almost instantly, he was tackled by a pink blur that took up most of his vision as well. He retaliated by grabbing the blur and swinging it around.

“Shiny!” Cadance yelled as she moved through the air. Shining Armor put his wife down and gave her a quick kiss. It was only quick because Cadance broke off before it was a full make out. “My,” Cadance said, “Seems somepony’s excited for tonight and in more ways than one.”

Shining grinned. “Well, it’s hard not to when your wife promises a great night.” He gave her another kiss. “So where are we going?”

Cadance put on a look of mock innocence. “Oh, I was thinking maybe we could have a private dinner on the balcony and have a dance under the stars.” she gazed at him with half lidded eyes. “Then go 'dancing' in bed.” She looked down to see the roses that were pressing against her. “Aww, thank you dear.” she said. She took the roses in her magic and set them up in a vase on the table. “Come, let’s get ready for a wonderful night.” Cadance began to drag Shining away to the bedroom they shared, or more specifically, the wardrobe.

In less than half an hour, Shining was all suited up in his dress uniform, straightening some buttons here and there in front of the mirror. He had to hand it to himself, he cleaned up nice. The entire time he could hear Cadance talking to someone in her closet, but judging from the sound, it was probably one of the maids helping Cadance with picking out a dress or something. Mares have strange protocols when it comes to appearances. Thank Celestia he didn’t have to do that as a stallion.

He saw a swish of movement in the corner of the mirror and turned to see Cadance wearing a cherry silk dress that cut off above her ankles with thigh-high slits on the side for mobility. The neckline was down low to be seducing but high enough to be modest. She wore simple makeup, just a bit to accent her face. Her hair was down with its bobbing curls at the bottom, the same with her tail. Despite most ponies making nobility out to be complicated when it came to dressing up, Cadance went against the stereotype by choosing simple things to wear. It was a quality of her that Shining found more tolerant than the other stuck up nobles, as well as endearing. Though Fleur de Lis was a bit of an exception as she had good taste in many things due to being with Fancypants. Shining once saw her play in the dirt with some unicorn foals once in plain sight in the park and she still looked fetching. But she was too…fashionable for Shining’s taste.

Shining was broken out of his daze by Cadance’s voice. “Sorry, what was that?” he asked. Cadance smirked.

“Well, I was going to ask for your opinion, but if this dress is too stunning, then I’ll have to put on something else.” she teased, edging her way towards the bathroom again.

Shining laughed. “Don’t worry, you look absolutely beautiful.” he said, then held out his arm for her to hold. Cadance took it gladly with a smile and they both strode down to their romantic destination. The halls were sparsely filled with the occasional guard that stood at attention when they passed or the maids and servants who bowed while they cleaned or delivered things. The windows let in the twilight of the coming sunset. Almost everypony was trying to finish up their work as quickly as they can to go home and meet their spouses or dates for the evening. Tonight was truly a prime night for romance.

Inspired by the thought, Shining picked up the pace a bit. He had no idea where they were going but he intended to get there soon. Cadance gently led him through the hallways and down the stairs. Sure she could have teleported the two of them, but why rush? Not to mention she needed her magic for tonight. She shivered in excitement at the thought.

“Mind if I ask where we're going?” Shining finally spoke up.

Cadance giggled and gave him a peck on the cheek. “I'll give you a hint. Where was the most important moment of our relationship?”

Shining frowned. “My room at my family's home?”

“No!” Cadance squeaked, slapping him playfully as a blush appeared on her face.

Shining laughed. “I'm kidding. Good times though. I never knew you were so flexible until that night.” he whispered into her ear, causing her to blush even more.

Cadance was so grateful that there were no servants around to see or hear them. Her face must be so red right now. Kinda like her ass when Shining- 'LET'S GET BACK ON SUBJECT HERE!' she chastised herself. Taking a moment to compose herself, she cleared out all naughty thoughts and focused on the evening.

Okay, so maybe not all of them. Who could blame her?

“I'm serious Shiny.” she said. “What was the most important moment of our time together?”

Shining tapped a finger on his lips as he thought. Cadance could almost see the gears move in his head as he deducted the location. “Hmm, only two places come to mind. Is it the restaurant where I proposed to you?”

Cadance smiled. “No. It would have, but I'm saving that for a later anniversary. Guess again.”

“The market where we went on our first date?” he asked, “Though it’d be kinda odd to go to Sherbert’s Ice cream store dressed like this.” Cadance gave a look of mock hurt.

“Shining, how could you forget our most precious moment?” she was cut off by a kiss.

“Then help me remember, love.” Cadance gave a cheeky grin and giggle.

“Nope. You have to keep thinking about it. I’m sure it’ll come to you.” That shut Shining up until they reached the Royal Gardens, or more specifically, the Starlight Promenade. “Oh yeah, I remember this place!” Shining said. “The place we first met. I was trying to find Twilight and found you and her here. It was then I also found out you were her foal sitter. Wow. That was so long ago.” At that moment, he noticed the table laid out with food ready to be eaten. An enchanted violin in the corner started to play slowly, instantly setting the mood of a wonderful romantic dinner right from a fairy tale.

Cadance giggled again. “Yup, you also got soaked when Twilight tried the new spell I was showing her. It was a good thing I was able to dry you off or I would never have known how fluffy you become. Not to mention little Twi would have just set you on fire.”

“I lost so many good clothes because of her.” Shining laughed as he pulled out the chair for his wife.

Cadance graciously accepted it as she quipped. “Don’t worry, I think you look better without them anyways.”

Shining chuckled. “Considering how much of a horny tease you’re acting, I’m surprised we’re even having dinner now.”

Cadance smiled slyly. “Oh, I considered it. But this way, I get to tease you more.” Shining just rolled his eyes and the two of them enjoyed their meal with the rise of the moon.

*****

Their meal was, in a word, fantastic. Luna must have been watching, for she put on the most spectacular show of bringing out the stars and if Shining didn’t know better, he could have sworn that the moonlight was directed at them the entire time. “Quite a night, huh.” Shining commented as they strolled back to their chambers on the scenic route.

“Mmhmm, but it’s not over yet.” Cadance said. “We still have to dance.”

“But we already did four dances to the enchanted instruments.” Shining said in mock confusion. Cadance punched him lightly in the arm.

“You know what I mean, Shiny.”

“Yes, I do, but I get the feeling that you have a surprise planned for me.”

Cadance tensed a bit. “Yes and nothing you say or do will make me tell you until we get back.”

At that, Shining gave an evil smirk. “Oh? Not even if I do…this?” Upon the last word, he unleashed a barrage of tickling fingers upon his wife’s body, reaching every sensitive spot they knew.

“AAAH!!” Cadance shrieked. “SHINING!! HAHAHAHAHA!! STOP THAT! Nonononono-AHAHAHAHA!!” After a minute, Shining ceased his attack as it yielded no results. It must be some surprise if she withheld against her weakness. He voiced this opinion.

“You...*gasp* have no idea.” Cadance said in between deep breaths. “Come on. Let’s get going since you’re so eager to get to it.” She strolled away with a sexy sway to her hips which Shining’s eyes gladly followed once he got moving.

*****

Back at the room, the Queen of the Changelings was pacing back and forth, becoming increasingly nervous and impatient with each minute Cadance was gone. ’Why did I agree to this?’ she thought, ’I had a plan when I got here and now I’m stuck waiting for my victim because I got caught up in the moment...again. This is the middle of my invasion all over again, with the same pony no less! Oh Faust, if I botch this, I will never hear the end of it. I might as well just go ahead and exile myself from the Hive. At least mother would be happy not having to put up with me anymore. Maybe I should visit that ‘Empire’ I heard of that appeared in the far north? Might be cold though, but I can probably make off with a few of the coats in the closet...’ Chrysalis took a step towards the closet before stopping and turning around.

“No. No. I’m not going to back out of this,” Chrysalis said as she increased the distance from the door. “I knew what I was getting myself into before I left and I’m no coward. Sure, I’m probably sitting in a trap, but if it comes to that I can use the love energy Cadance gave me to make my escape. Yes. Just throw a stun spell and run for it. Maybe punch one of them in the face if I get the chance.” She gave a confident laugh before her face turned pensieve. “With so much love at stake, I really don’t have much of a choice in this. Either go big or go home. I just hope Cadance returns soon to hold up her end of the deal. I didn’t sense any active malice when she made her request, but then I was also a little distracted.”

Chrysalis was still pondering her situation when she heard the door to the main chambers open. She faintly heard voices then the door to the bed chambers open. Chrysalis readied a stun spell just in case before the bathroom door opened and a familiar pink alicorn appeared.

Cadance's horn lit up briefly and the door shimmered. “There, now we can talk freely. Now hurry up and get ready!” she said before using magic to take off her dress.

Chrysalis let go of a sigh of relief she didn’t know she was holding, then asked. “I take it your night went well then?”

“Yes, we had a wonderful time, but the night is still young.” The pink alicorn said as she was working off her makeup and cleaning her face. She noticed in the mirror that Chrysalis was still standing near the closet door. “Are you not going to change?”

“Change for what?” Chrysalis asked. “I’m waiting for the love you promised me. I helped you with your outfit, what more do you need?”

Cadance paused and glanced over her shoulder. “You’ll get your love when you help me with this next part of the night.”

Frowning, Chrysalis asked. “What do you mean? How am I supposed to help with your, as you had put it, ‘aggressive cuddling’? Speaking of which, how does that even work? Is it like wrestling or something?” She tried to picture the royal couple laying on the couch while fighting over who was going to be the pillow. Needless to say, it was rather confusing.

Cadance gave her an incredulous look. “Chrysalis, I want you to help me give Shining the night of his life.”

Chrysalis blinked. “I’m afraid I still don’t follow what you’re saying.” she said. “What am I supposed to do to help make it the ‘night of his life’?”

Cadance was dumbstruck. “A-Are you serious?” she asked. When she received a nod in reply, Cadance sighed in slight frustration. “Chrysalis, we are going to go in there and fuck his brains out.” she said as if explaining a simple concept.

It took a second for it to sink in, but when Chrysalis realized what she said, her face turned so red it almost looked like it was on fire. “Whoawhoawhoawhoa! No! I did NOT agree to doing that. While it does clear up a few questions I had, I only agreed to take whatever love you two made from cuddling and be on my merry way. I don’t want him, y’know, putting his… thingie in me.” She shuffled uncomfortably in her spot.

Cadance didn’t quite know what to say to that, so she started laughing instead. It came out as a giggle before growing into full-blown laughter. She was only cut off when a balled up towel hit her in the face, thrown by a fuming changeling.

“What’s so funny?”

Trying to calm herself down, Cadance said, “Sorry, I just- hehe- For the longest time after my wedding, I had this idea that you were some sort of succubus from Tartarus. But now here you are, acting like a total virgin, calling his dick a ‘thingie’.”

“For the record, I am a virgin.” Chrysalis said through gritted teeth. “And Shining’s love for you was strong enough that I didn’t need to sleep with him in that way. Besides, I already had my hands full trying to coordinate my invasion and impersonate you that I had to put him to sleep every time he got frisky with me. In hindsight, it’s probably because he was so single minded around my disguise that made it so easy.”

“Yeah, he has a hard time keeping it in his pants around me.” Cadance said with a knowing smirk. “Not that I’m complaining.” Her face then turned serious. “Look, as much as I would love to keep discussing this, we’re running out of time here. I’m sorry I assumed that stuff about you, but I need you to make a decision. I can make do without you, but if you help me, you’ll get a literal fuckton of love. Your call.”

Chrysalis turned away as she thought it over. ‘She’s right. A whole lot of love and all for the low cost of my virginity and possibly my dignity. I can’t go back with nothing to show, and this would certainly win mother’s favor, if until my next batch of love.’ She sighed and began to strip herself. “Let’s just get this over with.”

Cadance followed her actions, almost tearing her dress off. “Great! Now-”

“On one condition,” Chrysalis interrupted, “I want him blindfolded before I go out there, or at least before we start doing the thing. I don’t want to lose any more dignity than I already have.”

Cadance nodded. “Fair enough. But you might want to disguise yourself anyways. Sometimes he likes a bit of horn or wing play and that’ll give you away if the holes don’t first.”

“Good point.” In a flash of green fire, another naked Cadance appeared. “What? Something wrong?”

“Oh, no. It’s just...this got a whole lot kinkier.” Cadance said, eyeing ‘herself’ up. “Are my hips really that small?”

“Huh?” Chrysalis looked down at herself. “Oh. Sorry, this was the first disguise I could think of.” She was about to change again when Cadance waved her hands.

“Don’t worry, it’s fine, but Shining knows how to detect Changeling magic. If you go out there, he’ll arrest you. Here.” Cadance’s horn flashed and Chrysalis was covered in a blue magic field for a few seconds. “There, now I’ve covered your magic with mine. He won’t notice a thing so long as you act like me.”

Chrysalis raised an eyebrow, “I thought I was supposed to be the evil mastermind.”

“Shush, you. It’s showtime!” Cadance lead Chrysalis into the bedroom by the hand and as soon as she set foot into the room, Chrysalis’ mind registered a few things. First, she was suddenly pulled into a provocative embrace with Cadance. It took all of her acting skills to keep up the façade of Cadance’s double and not blush like some schoolfilly. Next was Cadance’s words.

“Oh, Shiny~! I have a special treat for you!” she said with bedroom eyes as she rubbed up against the fake Princess, stroking her limbs sensually. The stallion in question was wide eyed and slack jawed at the sight of us lovers. His attention stood up proudly in seconds from its half awakened state before. That was the last thing Chrysalis registered.

’DEAR FAUST, WHAT IS THAT THING?!’ she mentally screamed, ’IS THAT NORMAL? IT’S AS BIG AS MY ARM! HOW DOES CADANCE TAKE THAT EVERY NIGHT?!’ She had heard rumors from other changelings about stallions and once tried to read a dirty romance novel, though she set that on fire when it came to the steamy parts, but she never saw an actual stallionhood. Come to think of it, she never saw what a changeling stallionhood looks like either. It took all her will not to run screaming. ’Snap out of it, Chryssy!’ she mentally slapped herself, ’All you need to do is help participate. You DON’T need to take that….thing into you. J-just….follow Cadance’s lead and you’ll do fine.’ While she had this internal argument, she completely missed the conversation between Cadance and her husband. Something about Chrysalis being an old friend acting as her double.

“…and here’s where it gets interesting!” Cadance said. She lit up her horn and a blindfold appeared on Shining’s head. “Try to guess who’s the wife and who’s the friend.” With another flick of her magic, Shining was splayed out on the bed. Thanks to the blindfold, Chrysalis dropped the act and mouthed silently to Cadance, “Please tell me I’m not going to have to take that into me!” She pointed at Shining’s member which was now almost ramrod straight in the air and harder than a boulder.

Cadance shook her head, much to the changeling’s relief, and replied in the same fashion, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you do anything uncomfortable. Pinkie Promise.” Chrysalis was somewhat reassured, but still nervous about it all. Letting Cadance lead her, she crawled onto the bed on the opposite side of the stallion. Chrysalis gave a look that said, “Now what?” Cadance replied only with a gesture towards her nethers and then to Shining’s face. Needless to say, Chrysalis’ face lit up like a tomato, but she shook her head and reminded herself why she was here.

Chrysalis reached across and carefully straddled Shining’s head, taking care not to hit him or land her rump on his horn. Once set, she lowered her hips onto his face slowly, making a cute squeak when she barely touched him. Looking towards her counterpart, she saw Cadance lower herself onto Shining’s legs and place her muzzle into his crotch, giving it a long sniff of its musky scent before slowly licking her way up the shaft. The sensual sight sparked a strange feeling in Chrysalis which was only fanned by Shining’s moans vibrating her folds.

“Mmmnn.” She moaned as slow waves of pleasure crawled up her body. Without even thinking, her hips started to slowly grind against the muzzle beneath her. “OH!” she cried out when suddenly, Shining’s tongue darted out towards her folds. She tried to move but found two white hands firmly holding her hips down. She moaned in pleasure as the hands worked their magic, kneading and rolling her ass and thighs like dough. Shining’s tongue went from light lapping to making long, slow licks up and down her pussy, and sometimes come close to her asshole. It was so dirty…yet it felt so amazing!

Chrysalis’ moans grew louder and more frantic as Shining worked. The slow waves of pleasure kicked it up a notch and now every touch went straight to her head. ’Sweet Faust! What is this I’m feeling? It’s so good!’ she barely thought as she began to grind harder on Shining’s face, eager to take in every ounce of pleasure. Just when she thought it wouldn’t get better, Shining found her bead and nibbled on it. That action alone sent her over the edge screaming as she achieved her first orgasm. ’Is this what sex feels like?’ she thought blissfully, ’It feels…amazing.’

Cadance glanced at her double with a slight smile, or as much of a smile she could make while taking in part of her husband’s length into her mouth. While Chrysalis was getting eaten out for the first time, Cadance was pulling out all the stops and experience she had to give Shining a mindblowing blowjob. She had started off with long strokes up and down his shaft, punctuated with a lick of the tip or a suck on his ball sack when she made it to an end. Following that, she swiped her tongue across his member as if she was trying to paint a picture with her mouth. A very, very sexy picture.

She finished off her teasing with a slow trace of the tip with her tongue with a caressing handjob before taking in his cock. The first time she did this with Shining, she could barely take the first half of it, but now years of experience have allowed her to take it all the way into her throat. She moaned lustfully as her head bobbed up and down with practiced precision. If she wasn’t paying attention, Cadance wouldn’t have heard Shining’s moans from her work, though she could definitely hear it in Chrysalis’ screams. ’Damn, I’m good.’ Cadance thought to herself. She gave Shining’s member another stroke before it started to twitch. Immediately, Cadance gripped the base of his shaft and pulled herself off of him. “Ah, ah, ah. Not quite yet, big boy.” the sexy alicorn teased, “I need you for later.”

Shining gave a whine of disappointment and pushed up the other Cadance’s hips enough to speak, “Oh, come on, Cady. That’s not fair.”

Cadance hummed playfully, “Well then, will this satisfy you?” she said as she shifted around and placed her glistening marehood above his member. Before either one of them could say anything, she speared herself on him to the hilt in one quick movement.

“Yes! Much better!” Shining cheered as Cadance began to ride him like no tomorrow. Her hips gyrated along his length, her ass tracing shapes in the air as she moved. Shining groaned his approval, “Oh, Cadance!”

“Mmm, yes dear?”

“Don’t…stop.” He grunted out.

Cadance giggled, “What makes you think I was going to?”

Meanwhile, Chrysalis was coming off the high of her first climax and she was more eager to help Cadance with this task, though a bit punch drunk. She lifted herself off Shining’s muzzle with some reluctance and moved to straddle his chest, very muscular chest as Chrysalis noted, just in front of the true Cadance’s gyrating hips. She leaned forward, placing his muzzle in her bosom. “Don’t forget about me, dearie.” She said, trying to imitate Cadance’s tone. Needless to say, he dug in with gusto, licking all over her skin, biting her nipples and sucking them like a foal. His hands gave her breasts the same treatment as her ass earlier, though slightly more enthusiastic. Chrysalis moaned in pleasure and squealed when Shining pulled on her nipples roughly. Oh how glad she was that he was blindfolded, for she didn’t think she could do this if he was watching, despite the disguise.

However, she felt a bit guilty for just receiving all this wondrous pleasure and not returning it. She glanced up at Shining’s horn in front of her and, in a moment of brilliance, began to perform the same act Cadance did to his cock earlier, or at least imitate. She licked up the smooth, white bone, tracing each line with her tongue, before sucking on it.

Below her, Shining groaned in pleasure from this new treatment. Cadance had never before done this to him, though he did it plenty to her. “Damn, Cady.” he said, letting go of Chrysalis’ nipple, much to her disappointment, “Is this what it’s like when I do it to you?”

Chrysalis didn’t know what to say, but luckily, Cadance intervened. “You’ve no idea, Shiny. Oh!” she said in between thrusts. Chrysalis kept on licking, and even nibbling it like Shining did to her breasts. His groans became louder with each bite and suddenly, his body jerked and his hands roughly grasped Chrysalis’ rump as he cried out, “Cadance!” His horn glowed an intense blue and a magical liquid spurted out into Chrysalis’ mouth while Cadance took the load from Shining’s other “horn”. Cadance screamed in delight as she felt each spurt fill her up. Chrysalis, on the other hand, coughed in surprise at the liquid going down her throat. ’Blueberries?’ she thought as she tasted the remnants on her tongue, ’Tastes…quite good actually.’

“Oooh,” Cadance moaned as she stopped her movements, “Wow, Shiny. That was probably the biggest load I’ve taken from you yet.” And it was true. She never felt quite a batch of baby batter come out of him before. She felt a bit jealous of Chrysalis for finding out this new sensitive spot on her husband, but the fact that she was on her husband’s cock when he went off erased that feeling.

Shining chuckled, “Heh, I wouldn’t know.” Using his hands to feel around, and cop a few more feels on the Cadance on his chest, he braced himself before getting up. This caused the Cadance on his member to fall back on his legs, and the Cadance on his chest to fall on top of her and almost collide heads. “But, now it’s my turn to do the work.” He said as he pulled his legs out and kneeled before the Cadance pile. Grasping his length in one hand, he used the other to feel up the line of pleasure holes in front of him. “Which one, which one?” he muttered playfully as he lightly fingered and rubbed each hole in succession. As the two Cadance moaned in pleasure to his touch, Shining smirked, “I wonder if I can make you two sing a song like this?”

“Shining!” Cadance half screamed as she felt a finger rub her clit, “Shut up and fuck us already!”

“Killjoy.” Behind the blindfold, Shining rolled his eyes, “Alright, since you’re so impatient, I’ll start with the bottom one first…” Shining smiled mischievously, “Once I hear her say please.”

Cadance growled under her breath, “Please.”

“Please what?”

“Please fuck me.”

Shining wasn’t done yet, “Where and how?”

Cadance would have smacked the grin off his face if it didn’t mean knocking Chrysalis to the floor. Speaking of which, the disguised changeling didn’t feel as heavy as she looked, surprisingly. In fact, ‘being smushed’ was a stretch at how Chrysalis felt on top of her. But that was a question for later, right now Cadance wanted her husband inside her. “I want you to take that cock of yours and ravage my marehood until I can’t walk straight!”

“As you wish.” Shining said, and once he positioned himself accordingly, he began to thrust. Cadance’s folds parted eagerly to take all of him in while clamping onto his member like a vise. Shining groaned, “Damn, Cady, I thought you wanted me to screw you silly. Going to be kinda hard when you’re this tight.”

“Mmm, not as hard as how you feel dear.” She replied blissfully as she felt herself become filled up. Once Shining made it to the hilt, he started to pull back and his stallionhood made sure to scrape past every sensitive spot inside her. She gave another scream of pleasure and felt her body burn with love. Remembering the changeling on top of her, Cadance wrapped her arms around her double and groped her breasts. It felt odd to be rubbing her breasts on another person’s body but Cadance was in too much pleasure to care. She rubbed the changeling’s breasts together and pulled on her nipples, causing Chrysalis to moan in pleasure.

Chrysalis, on the other hand was in a state of bliss. Love energy surrounded her like a buffet, freely given to her unlike stolen love. It tasted wonderful. It was so much more fulfilling than when she tried to steal Shining Armor’s love at the wedding. It was like nothing she had ever felt before. There was so much love, even she couldn’t take it all. ’Is this what it’s like to feel loved?’ she wondered, ’Truly loved, not because of some mask?’. Chrysalis felt more love from her breasts and saw that Cadance was massaging them with the occasional tweak of the nipple. She moaned with the touch and her hands moved on their own. One hand grabbed Cadance’s and another went for Shining’s, and they brought them towards her nethers where Chrysalis felt an itch that so desperately needed scratching.

“Looks like somepony is wanting some attention.” Shining said as he felt the hand guide him to the wet warmth above the love hole he was thrusting into.

“So it, mmm, seems. Oh!” Cadance gasped out in between thrusts, “I think we should give it to her.” As soon as she said that, Cadance used her hand to massage the outer folds and the area around Chrysalis’ clitoris. Shining’s hand went further south and spread “Cadance’s” ass cheeks so he could play with the rosebud. A quick spell from his horn made sure everything, even inside, was clean for use. No sense in getting sick after all. Another spell brought a bottle of lube which he squeezed onto his hand and her ass. He used his slick thumb to push past the hole, receiving a surprised yelp from “Cadance”.

They were at this for not even a minute before Shining called out, “Cadance, I’m close.”

“Give it to me!” the pink alicorn replied enthusiastically. Shining complied, moving faster and digging deeper than before in order to make it a good finish.

“Here it comes!” he cried out as he felt his cock twitch and unleash another load into the depths of his wife. Cadance screamed in bliss as she climaxed soon after him. Only Chrysalis was left out, though she wasn’t too far behind.

“That…” Cadance panted, “was amazing.”

“Yes,” Shining agreed, “but you are even more amazing.” The romantic moment lasted for a few seconds before an unsatisfied groan emanated between them.

“Oh, I forgot about her.” Cadance said, “Do you think you can..?”

Shining puffed out his chest, even though he couldn’t see the mare he was trying to impress, “I think I got one more round in me.”

“Thank you. You really did a number on me.” Cadance said as she slid out from under Chrysalis, “Hopefully, this time it works.”

“You worry as much as Twily does.” Shining said. Since he was still blindfolded, he had to guide the other Cadance’s body to one side of the bed by touch. “It’ll work this time. I promise. Also, can I take the blindfold off now?”

Cadance bit her lip in thought before speaking, “No. It adds to the experience.”

“Uh-huh.” Shining said, not entirely convinced, “Well, if you say so.” His hands began to roam across the double’s body, searching for the sensitive areas. He started with the breasts, giving them a quick rubdown before moving towards her wings. He stroked the wing as he leaned forward and kissed along her collarbone, trailing up to her ear and down to her navel. The double moaned in approval of his actions, especially when he was around her ear. As he finished up the foreplay, his cock was raring to go again. He began to put himself into position when suddenly he was blocked by a pair of hands. He was about to say something, when the double spoke before him, “Not there.” She said.

Chrysalis may have been drunk on love, but she was sober enough to know her limits. If Shining took her virginity like this, it might hurt quite painfully and her disguise may shatter. Not to mention her other reasons for keeping it intact. Instead, she had to go with the next best thing. Her virgin ass. She will have to sacrifice it, but damn if it isn’t worth it now. “Other hole.”

“Are you sure?” Shining said.

“Yes. Just…be gentle.”

Shining snorted, “I’m always gentle.” Chrysalis was skeptical, but that washed out into nervousness as Shining grabbed her and flipped her over onto her hands and knees. Chrysalis squealed in surprise at the movement and another at the hands grabbing her butt cheeks roughly. Then, she felt something fall in between them. Something big. ’Oh my Faust, he’s going to break me with that thing!’ she thought in a burst of panic. However, before she could even react, Shining grabbed her hips and began to push slowly inside her. “FUCK!” she cried out as she felt her hole stretch to accommodate his size. She buried her head into a nearby pillow and screamed as Shining kept pushing his way inside of her.

“’Fuck’ is right.” She barely heard Shining say, “Damn, your ass is tight.” He grunted as he tried to push himself as far as he could into her. Despite the copious amounts of lube, he was only able to get about half of himself into her when he stopped. The double was still panting from the effort, so he waited while she got comfortable. After a minute, he barely caught the “Continue” from her. He began to pull out while the double’s ass resisted his movement, but he persevered. After a few thrusts, he was able to get a steady rhythm going, though it was still a workout to keep moving.

Chrysalis, though, felt as if she were in nirvana now. It had hurt when he pushed in as far as he went, but now it just felt beyond amazing. There were no words to describe how each thrust sent tsunamis of bliss up and down her body. “Ooohhh! Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!” she screamed, punctuating each time as he pistoned in and out of her. Chrysalis felt as though her mind was melting from the warm pleasure and her eyes started to roll back into her head. Her tongue hung out, drooling over the sheets, but she didn’t care. She just didn’t want it to end.

But end it did. Her tight ass was too much for Shining as he rapidly approached his climax. “I’m…hng… almost there!” he grunted out.

“YES! DO IT! FILL ME UP!” Chrysalis shouted. Shining caved in and dug his hips into hers as deep as he could go before he twitched and released his final load into her bowels. Chrysalis came as she felt the warmth seep into her body. The feeling was much more intense than before, causing her brain to shut down from the sensation and her body go limp as she passed out.

Shining panted heavily. “Whew!” he breathed out, “That was…intense.”

“I’ll say.” Cadance said beside him, “I was kinda jealous of her with how rough you were going at it. Are you sure you didn’t hold back on me?”

Shining laughed as he pulled himself out of the double, leaving her ass gaping in the air, and fell back next to his wife, completely exhausted. He barely managed to get the blindfold off of himself with magic. “When I said I had one last round in me, I didn’t think I would need the energy for two.” he wheezed, “She felt like the first time we tried anal.”

“Yeah,” Cadance said, as the memories came to her, “I had such a tight ass back then.”

Shining leaned over and kissed her, “You still do,” he then turned to the passed out double, “So…what should we do about her?”

“Mmm, she’ll leave in the morning.” she said, and with a flick of her magic, pulled the sheets off the bed and laid all three of them in it, with Shining in the middle, “For now, let’s sleep.” Cadance closed her eyes and quickly did just that.

“Sweet dreams, love.” Shining soon followed her lead.
